Temporary Access

Council may permit temporary vehicle access through parks and reserves for non-recreational purposes for works within or associated with adjoining properties. All temporary vehicle access within parks and reserves is subject to Council approval, with all requests subject to individual assessment.

Applications must be completed and submitted to City of Parramatta via the below form a minimum of 10 working days before the requested date. Alternatively, requests can be submitted by completing and forwarding a request form to openspace@cityofparramatta.nsw.gov.au

Should the temporary access request be approved, the applicant will need to pay a refundable $150 gate key bond. Access approval is also subject to the acceptance of Councils standard temporary access terms and conditions.
